John Gilligan Release

Notorious criminal John Gilligan was released on Tuesday after 17 years in prison attracting much publicity as the press waited round the clock for him to emerge from Portlaoise Prison.

In 1996, his game was up when he was arrested in Heathrow Airport en route to Holland with a suitcase full of €300,000 in cash.

One of the men involved in putting ‘a stop to his gallop’ all those years ago was Felix McKenna – former head of the Criminal Assets Bureau who joins Marian as does Brian Sherry - former detective inspector in Blanchardstown/Finglas.
